You need portable showers and restrooms in areas that houses homeless groups. In San Francisco in the tenderloin, they have a 24 hour cleansing area for the people there that need it. They’ve had that for quite some time. You guys should’ve had that awhile back a homeless groups were growing years back. By the way, the cleansing station in the tenderloin was on a main street which they have relocated to an alley way. That’s one that I’ve personally seen. That’s not including areas of San Francisco I haven’t attended yet. What can we do about the syringes and needles lying in the streets? Is that ok for adults and children to see? I really question if you all actually leave your offices to look at the streets of Oakland. See how people are really living. If you haven’t, please come out and see. Not just go to the nicer parts of Oakland, but the other parts.
